Raspberry's Second Life

Awake Non-Lucid

I'm sitting in my kitchen, on a high white stool. I'm play Pokemon on a DS. It's an old version, but has been newly updated. As I play, I compare it to the other game, not really sure about it. As I'm walking along in the grass, I have a creepy feeling that something's just going to jump out at me.

I look up as Paige calls me. She's my new step-sister, now that my mum's gone and gotten married to her man-whore boyfriend (she's not married, and Paige is actually a girl in one of my classes. The man-whore bit is true though -_-) . "Hey, we're gonna watch a movie. Coming through?" She asks, gesturing towards the living room.

"No thanks." I say coldly, and then get back to my game. I fondly catch a Charmander (Charmander feelin' the love, yeah! <3) which I decide to train as fast as humanly possible.

There's some kind of commotion going on outside. At this time of the night? I slowly put my game down and head out to check. I'm delighted, although a little intimidated by what I find. I'm in my old street, and each group of martial artists in the area have met up for some kind of festival. I get quite into it because I've always been interested in martial arts, but after things kicked off at home, never really thought about it. I figured I might pick up Kuk Sool Won sometime next year when things have calmed down.

I look around and notice some people I know. They all seem so tall now! Everyone's together, but in distinct groups at the same time. As the karate section pass me, I notice a girl I know.

"Amy, you do karate!?" I ask, quite disbelieving. She doesn't hear me though, and turns to get ready for whatever they're going to do. People start competing across the street. The night adds a surreal effect to it all.

A tall, middle-aged man approaches me. He tells me that he's noticed my interest in this. Then he throws a ball at me, testing my reactions. As I make a grab for it, a small blond girl flashes past, grabbing it before me. The man nods towards her and tells me to retrieve the ball.

I chase after the girl. I thought I was fast, but she's something else! I tear forward, twisting through the estate. Eventually I manage to get ahold of her t-shirt and get the ball. I jog back, feeling victorious. But suddenly my limbs aren't working properly. Goddammit they're so heavy. He throws the ball at me again, but I'm so slow now. The dream fades.

Martial Arts is something I'm genuinly interested in, so I enjoyed this dream very much!
